Trustees
The Waiora Healthcare Trust Board has six members and includes three representatives from our two founding providers; Te Whanau o Waipareira Trust and the Waitakere Union Health Centre, as well as a General Practitioner, representing the providers. The Directors of Waiora Healthcare come from a membership base that includes the Engineering, Printing and Manufacturing Union (EPMU), the Service and Food Workers Unions (SFWU) and the community of Te Whanau O Waipareira Trust. This enables the engagement of the community in key strategic decisions about the PHO’s future and services offered.
